from the bedtime stories series: 'page no. 10,' found objects and mixed media on children's book page, 7"x9"x1.5"

been framing 3 of my bedtime stories pieces to submit to tarfest this year..hope i get in. this'll be the first time i've ever entered a show without submitting slides. i have to admit, it's much more satisfying knowing i can take digital pictures, configure them and submit in a matter of hours, rather than the days it would take to labor with slide production. and even then, you're not guaranteed premium shots, depending on lighting, trembling hands and faulty developing. yup, it's the wave of the future alright..

mmm. i really like that piece a lot, i hope you get accepted. i have thousands of slides in boxes and you just reminded me of that, i used to make my own viewmaster reels and build little sets and cut the slides and it was tedious but ohsomuchfun.:)

yah..what to do with ALL those bleedin' slides, that's a whole other ball o'wax! maybe i should make martha stewart proud and fashion a 2 story x-mas tree sculpture for the lawn. i'd be the envy of all the neighbors! bwa-ha ha..

hope you get it accepted, Im sure you will. I just looked at the Tarfest link - it looks fab; do you think theyd be interested in my dvd as a submission? or do you have to be over there to exhibit? just a thought :)

something tells me it's only a regional show.."This year's juried program is seeking creations in all mediums (painting, drawing, sculpture, installation, etc.) by emerging artists, which uniquely express their cultural viewpoint of living and working in Los Angeles."

I've gotta agree with Pammy... hey, your sis has great taste! :o) But, actually, I really like this icon, as well! Ya know, you could even offer a service where you design icons for people... hell, I know I'll sign up for at least one right away!!!

i love that you use the photo chuck took of you at our little taco fest!!!!

Which is exactly why I can't wait to take you guys out for Desi food... I need new userpics! :) Actually, that photo had the best feedback of *any* of my pics and it was literally demanded that it be made into a userpic! :o)
